SNIPPET: "Muthana is facing five counts of second-degree assault, DWI and reckless driving. He is accused of injuring six people. They are 21-year-old Dominick Nicholson, 20-year-old Tyrese Beard, 40-year-old James Pross, 50-year-old Debra Hollis, 25-year-old Luis Cruz and 49-year-old Diane Neil. All are Rochester residents."

SNIPPET: "In his statement to police, he said he drank six cans of Budweiser in an hour. Then he started using swear words, cussing police and government. He said, "Ben Franklin was stupid. He should have made it so you *expletives* can't swerve the law. The Muslims will fix this country."

When bail was being set at $20,000, the prosecutor said that Muthana has ties to Yemen...."

SNIPPET: “The driver, Munir Muthana, is in jail charged with assault and DWI. Police say he had been drinking before he tried to deliberately run people over with his car.

One victim told us today she couldnt sleep last night. She can still see the driver’s face as he was driving towards her. She says she panicked and got out of her car but that put her right in the cross hairs.

He was coming towards me he was going to hit me. Then I looked and I seen the car and I ran behind the car and he looked the same way I looked and he just hit the car and just put the car right over me, I was like up under the car. Deborah Hollis was pinned under the car in the parking lot of the Sunoco station on South Plymouth Avenue. She said she thought the driver was going to go after her again, so she ran inside the store.”

SNIPPET: “Late this morning, News 10NBC found out why Muthana may have lost it. According to the police reports, he got a prostitute Thursday afternoon. It was a person he thought was a woman but who was really a man and people started making fun of him. That’s when he got in his car and the whole thing started.”

The poor man.

It wasn't his fault.

No one should be held responsible for what they do if they have been taunted or ridiculed.

It is unamerican.

Munir M. Muthana, 27, of Rochester was charged with five counts of second-degree assault, a felony, and operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated and reckless driving, both misdemeanors. He pleaded not guilty in City Court this morning.

Muthana is accused of intentionally droving into several pedestrians in the parking lot area of the Sunoco gas station at 700 S. Plymouth Ave. striking a bicyclist, two pedestrians and then ramming his vehicle into a parked car, which in turn hit another pedestrian and pushing her under the parked car, according court documents.

Then Muthana allegedly fled from police officers who were trying to stop him and led them on a chase throughout the southwest part of the city. The chase ended when the vehicle Muthana was allegedly driving rammed into a civilians vehicle on near the intersection of Brooks Avenue and Genesee Street before coming to stop and taken into custody by police.

He was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital to be treated for some minor injuries. The six other people who were injured by his vehicle were also taken to Strong to be treated for minor injuries. Police believe all victims were random bystanders and not targets or acquaintances of the man driving the vehicle.

According to court documents, Muthana had drank six cans of Budweiser beer within the hour leading up to his erratic driving. When he was questioned by police at Strong Memorial Hospital, Muthana allegedly kept yelling profanities at the police officer who was interviewing him.

“It was a person he thought was a woman but who was really a man and people started making fun of him.”

Kinda like that shrink who went postal at Ft Hood, who was secretly gay and possibly HIV+, whose lover dumped him when he left DC (ya ever notice how many gays are in DC?) and whose secret would’ve been exposed if he went to Iraq?

No, alcohol and whores/strippers are permitted as a last rite before they commit the Holy Jihadist act of blowing their dumb asses up and taking ‘infidels’ with them. It is a clear pattern with them....all the best American Muslim Terrorist Jihadists are doing it.

A guy who hit me in my little car (he was driving a utility van going at high speed on a drugs/alcohol cocktail mix and I was stopped at an intersection) and realized what he did, backed up to hit me again.

Anyway, because I didn’t die he got 6 months. That was a long time ago, but in those days, that was a long sentence for a drunk/hit and run driver with a totally lengthy rap sheet.

Poor grammar, no editing and generally sloppy reproting.

So, what’s new?

It's very nice, home of some great industry (Kodak, Bausch & Lomb, Xerox), fairly 'balanced' politically for New York State in the sense that Democrats don't run everything, currently a (D) mayor w/ a great Republican Monroe County Executive, Maggie Brooks (Rochester is in Monroe County). Good place to raise your kids.

Too much snow (100 plus inches per winter) which fosters creativity in business & education. Several good schools including the Eastman School of Music, University of Rochester, Rochester Institute of Technology.

On the topic of extremist Muslims in the area, well, there's a nuclear plant 40 or 50 miles downwind, and there is one hell of a security breach named Lake Ontario just north of the city.

With his reference to sharia and favorable view of Muslims - not to mention his obvious Diversity qualifications - he should join the elite teams of the FBI, CIA, DIA, CID, DHS, or JTTF in protecting our nation. I am 100% certain he would pass all security and background checks, that is if they’re even given to to Muslims any more.
